The Chilean Constitution is the fundamental legal document that outlines the structure of the government, the rights of citizens, and the principles of the state in Chile. The current constitution was enacted in 1980 during the military regime of Augusto Pinochet, although it has undergone several amendments since then. In 2021, a process began to draft a new constitution through a constituent assembly, reflecting the demands for social and political change in the country. This initiative aimed to create a more inclusive and democratic framework, addressing issues such as human rights, environmental protection, and indigenous rights.
